FIN A HCE.

Congress regulates the monled interests
of the nation. The people look to that
body for financial particulars. The United
States treasury belongs to the people. The
people pay the taxes TO carry on our ma
tional, domestic and social business The
treasury might be called the peoples bank.
All people who pay taxes are national
stock holders and ought 10 know some
thing about national banking. There
should always be enough gold and silver
and copper deposited in the treasury or
national bank to meet the demands Of
business. Greenbacks or promissory notes
TO be pad in specie on demand. The
amount Of specie in deposit should be suf
fcent TO pay the notes on demand. A
limited surplus always on deposit will
secure public confidence Mt home and
abroad. Neither Cleveland nor any other
person need be frightened because there is
large overpus in the United Slatss treas
ury. Such an overplus will give the nation
power TO meet sure success. If this over
plus had been available in the last war, il
would have prevented an overwhelming
natIona debt and saved the nation from
the robbery Of slarpers. If there must be
monopolies in this great Yankee nation,
let il be national monopoly. Let the
people, all the people, have the benefit Of
it, Our posioflice department has no rival
at least on American soil. Our national
banking Syrtem has no rivals. Uncle Sam'r
promissOry notes are taken at par every
where on earth and would he taken nHesv-
en- if they did business there ON the gold
basis. Our railroad, express, and tele-
graphic systems should be national. These
private monopo!ies have already received
very large amount Of funds from the
national treasury. II this is not highway
robbery it is national robbery. Uncle
Sam ought 10 have his eye and hard b0ll
on all wheat, hog, whisky and all rings. II
there muel he lottery and gambling houses
let the government Of the United States
own all the shares and put the profits IL
the public treasury for the benefit Of the
people, one and all. There is class o
men calling themselves statesmen, who art
national robbers, aud ought to be +,
marked. From all such lei the govern
menl protect the people. We need more
money for national uses. Put on the tariff
and other sources oi income. ID.

SOWING WILD OATS IN UTAH.

TIEBER, UTAH, Dec. -, 'S7.
EDITOR JoURNAL:-Times in Utah are
changing. The minions OF Uncle Sam are
having good times Mt the expense OF the
SAINTS, and instead Of the Mormon church
beng the ruling power in the land, Uncle
Sam is asserting his authority and taking
control, not only OF things political, but
OF things temporal, as well. All the church
property in excess Of what the law allows
hiss been taken charge Of by u. s. re-
ceiver, which includes the Temple Block
in Salt Lake CiIy-Tilhing Office and
yards, and the Gaurdo House.
Temple Block has on il the Mormon
Endowment House, Grand Tabernacle
and the Great Temple, one OF the finest
buildings OF It's size in the world. 1t is
built OF very superior quality OF granite
and the Mason work Just about completed.
The SAINTS have been working on it about
thirty years, and its value approximates
near 81 100000. The Gaurdo House,
formerly known as the Amelia Palace
Quilt by Brigham Young for one OF his pet
wives out of church money! is n magni6-
ce Mt residence, and cost 500, 900. All
this property will now be rented from the
| Government by the Mormons. OF course
these things make the best Of the Saints
feel somewhat discouraged and the end is
not yet. The probabilities are that Uncle
| tvil I,n paata ODD IN IA
enormous wealth OF some other churches,
and in all justice lie will have 10 do So.
This legislation will apply TO more than
the Mormons, and Uncle Sam will breed u
scab on his nose il lie DOM see 10 il that
all churches are dealt with in accordance
with the law. Anyhow, this is the way
some of the prominent Mormons talk and
IL must be 30, OF course.
There is an endless chain Of Polygamists
going To and coming out Of the penilentiary
for unlawful cohabilalion. Most Of them
regard their imprisonment simply M per-
secution, and come home and do the same
thing over again, very few living up TO the
law, and in fact most Of them defying it,.
There seems 10 be but small demand
for second and third wives nj present, but
some think that when Marshall Dyer, the
U. S. Receiver, gels his Temple in order
the chances will he better.
Business here is somewhat improved,
although stock cattle have deprecated in
value at an alarming extent. Beef is u
gIut on the market, aud no call whatever
for range cattle. You can buy them at

BRIEFLY TOLD.


Told in brief, the railroad case recently
decided by the Supreme. Court of OHIO, is
in substance ns follows: In 1881 some
parties purchased substantially all the
capitol stock of three railway companies
and consolidated them into one company,
known as the "Columbus, Hooking Valley
& Toledo II. T." This consolidated COM
pany's authorized stock was 500, 100000,
parties who had secured the controlling
stock in the three companies thus cons0li-
dated. Having the majority of the stock
Of the consolidated company these parties
held a stockholders meeting and elected
Themselves directors. Afterwards they
bonded the property Tor SS,000,000, and
according TO the conclusIon OF the COu,
FUSED all OF said 5000, 600 OF bonds or
their proceeds to pui chuse nt ten times its
actual value the entire capitol stock of II
mining corporation IN which, at the time
Of the purchase n mriurily Of the directors
held large interest, aud for which they
received in payment large portion OF the
bonds or proceeds" This, the Supreme
Court declares WAS not good contract
and says: III the directors purchase their
own property for themselves with corpor-
ale funds, the company may, III its own
name, by action compel them 10 account
for the funds so received" The case
came into the Supreme Court on motion
TO disolve an injunction allowed by n COM
mon pleas court in nm action by John w.
Shaw, president of the consolidated com
pany named, against Stephen Burke ct al.
The original injunction restrained the
defendants from di-posing OF stock in theil
possessi on, and WAS made several months
ngo, and IL was this injunction which the
| Su preme Court refused TO dissolve. III,
amount Of securities which the defendants
were thus enioined from selling, 10 said tC
be about So 100000. Many who hav,
seen these consolidation schemes with il,
